Bath repair at your home in Church End
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the day after. Whether it’s hairline or through cracks in acrylic and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
Repair or replace in Church End?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business
See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Church End as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips under the taps
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Church End questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
